What is the Story Theatre Company?

Story Theatre Company is dedicated to creating productions for young people using traditional narrative material as its base. Our purpose is to create and perform material that is fun to watch, and at the same time enhances the curriculum in the areas of Language Arts, Music and Citizenship.

Formed by Jim Leard, Story Theatre Company has been performing in schools and communities across Canada since 1981, and has earned a reputation of excellence in theatre for young audiences.

Story Theatre Company is a registered, non-profit society and whose mandate is to create productions for young audiences that enhance and complement the learning experience in the classroom. Our focus is to create shows that use the familiar content of Folk Tales, Stories from the oral tradition, and Classic literature as the vehicle to promote Literacy and Social Responsibility.

We proudly continue our 30 year tradition of original presentations mixed with music and interactive games that continue to delight audiences.
